Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Browse any target subreddit, read full posts, analyze strategies, and extract competitive intelligence -- all without getting blocked by Reddit. Entry point: python3 /root/.openclaw/skills/reddit-spy/scripts/reddit_spy.py <command> [options] All commands output JSON to stdout. Logs go to stderr.
Tor (primary, already running): Tor provides real-time Reddit access from any IP. It's running on this VPS as a systemd service. # Verify Tor is running systemctl status tor@default # If stopped, start it systemctl start tor@default Optional: Reddit OAuth (even more reliable): If you have Reddit API access, set these env vars for 60 req/min: export REDDIT_CLIENT_ID="your-app-client-id" export REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET="your-app-secret" export REDDIT_USERNAME="your-reddit-username" export REDDIT_PASSWORD="your-reddit-password" Optional: Proxy: export REDDIT_PROXY_URL="http://user:pass@proxy:port"
